    "Slovokia" (post-?) World War I unknown uniform


    Recommended Posts

    A query arose on a genealogical site regarding the indentification of these men. They are brothers from Holic in "Slovokia," said to be World War I. The uniforms are Austro-Hungarian, but the insignia are unfamiliar. Could they be early post-war Czech? What are the cap badges? The collar numbers are "4" for the man on the left and "301" (!) for the one on the right.

    Hi... these are czechoslovak soldiers, cca 1919-1920. Cap badges are with letters RČS which means "Republika ČeskoSlovenská - Czechoslovak Republic (letter R on the top, Č and S under and on sides) used cca 1918-1920, caps are in new form (inspired by French uniforms) used after 1919 and with badges of rank on the sleeve. the number on the collars are numbers of regiments....
